Well done to West Ham last night as nobody else seems to want to mention it. Wouldn't have been too bad for Manc supporters getting home last night as most of then live in London. ;-)

How does it feel when an old boy does that to you? Somebody I know who is a Manc supporter tried to brush the loss off as a mere blip, but I had to point out to him that regardless of the personnel on parade, this was a top versus bottom clash, and therefore pride is a major factor. He wasn't happy.


I went to the home of football to watch a very mediocre afair, but I suppose we won and thats the main thing.

Haha, and slowly the Emerson Crane/Atila the whoever wind-up bus gathers speed.


It was a great result for WH last night. Congratulations and good luck for an extended run at the cup.


It was nice to see Fergie on the touchline, animated, like the days of old, really getting involved.

Anyway, us glory hunters can't be too disappointed with being outplayed and I'm sure that we'll use it as a lesson. That, or we're in terminal decline if you believe certain Gooners on here. :)

Just for clarification, I refer to Arsenal as the home of football, previous posts refer. As for Everton not winning, well nothing new there then.

I find it strange that it took others comments to prompt Manc supporters to grudgingly offer praise to the Hammers for their perforamnce last night. Strange, but not surprising.

Erm, I wasn't online. Unlike you, I don't sit on here waiting to trot out the same tired old lines 24/7.


In fact, I'm beginning to think you are a spambot. That would explain a lot. Also, what was grudging about it. I said they won fair and square and congratualted them. At this point, if it was Arsenal, you would probably be bleating on about how they bullied you into losing, or the weather was a bit cold for your boys. :)

And you have the nerve to say my lines are tired? Touched a nerve yet again have I? Oh yes, and we didn't lose.;-)

Blues making the semi-finals to. And no sweeter way of doing than beating the V*le. Only regret not being able to make it up there this evening. And now I'll have a whiskey in my whiskey and see who we get in the draw.


A quiet encounter in East London awaits. So that's Millwall and West Ham both away in the same week!

Income generation is not to be sniffed at these days PGC, but I take your point


I haven?t liked the finger wagging at the BBC and Times for running the FIFA allegations and the huffy ?the timing hasn?t helped?. No it probably hasn?t but then that isn?t the main consideration if the allegations are true


But let?s assume that corruption is rife and blah de blah, the WC is going to end up SOMEWHERE, so I would be happy to see it here. Then again, if it goes somewhere else I won?t be weeping into my pillow


I?m still recovering from the Gary Linaker story tho

Really hope we get the World Cup, if we don't the next likely date is 2030. Some FIFA officials are no doubt very dodgy but liked the line I heard on the radio the other day "No doubt the BBC will be running a Panorama special on the royal family 3 days before the Royal Wedding".

      Fireworks

      By first mate · Posted

      Don't know why but it seems like there have been impromptu fireworks since early September. At one point I even wondered if there was a shooting range or something like that over Dulwich Hamlet way- the direction where the firework sounds seem to be coming from? Is there some kind of new, fireworks craze going on and where are people getting them, out of season?

      Looking for good wifi suggestions please!

      By Sophie12345 · Posted

      Hi everyone, thanks so much for taking the time to come back on my thread - hearing all your responses has been very helpful.    I’ve tried some of the suggestions you shared about how to improve the connection but they don’t seem to make too much difference so I think we are probably in a dead spot unfortunately. I’ll keep trying though and hopefully it will get a bit better.    Coincidently, I found out yesterday that BT fibre broadband is coming to East Dulwich soon which should much improve the WiFi signal available in the area so I’m planning to switch to that as soon as it arrives. Fingers crossed! If you’re interested to hear how it is, feel free to message me and I can let you know.    Thanks again for all your help!

      Venue hire suggestions

      By beansprout · Posted

      If you want to self cater and do it yourself, why not try one of the rooms in a church..  one I am thinking about has a huge room with kitchen and toilets… parking on site.. and another one worth considering is the church near Dulwich Library , top of Barry Road..  pm if you want more info and of course.. all the pubs on Lordship Lane. if you want further afield, Rosendale Pub has rooms above bar area that you can also hire…  Alleyns Head also good - section off a section of the pub for  your sole use and parking on site.. although,might not work if try want to dance and play there own music. Kingwood House might also be worth considering…
